27-BACK TO THE FUTURE!

BACK TO THE FUTURE! Several months went by. The WOOLLY MAMMOTH was brought back to Mouse Island. Would you believe it? The entire BLOCK OF ICE was cut from the mountain. It was hauled back to the island aboard a special freezer ship! The MAMMOTH was donated to New Mouse City's Mouseum of Natural History. There it was defrosted and studied by several scientists. It was found to be a valuable source of information about life in the PLEISTOCENE AGE.

回到未来!几个月过去了。 长毛象被带回了老鼠岛。 你相信吗?整块冰都从山上割下来了。 它被一艘特殊的冷冻船拖回了岛上!这只猛犸被捐赠给了新老鼠城的自然历史博物馆。 在那里，它被解冻，并由几位科学家进行研究。 它被发现是关于更新世生命的宝贵信息来源。

Finally, it was exhibited to the public for everyone to admire. The line for the mouseum stretched for three blocks! It was like the time the blockbuster Supermouse IV opened at the Grand Squeak Cinema. The exhibition's success gave me an idea. I wrote a book about dinosaurs, mammoths, and other prehistoric animals. It became A BESTSELLER! More months went by.

最后，它被展示给公众，让大家欣赏。 去博物馆的队伍排了三个街区!这就像电影《超级老鼠4》(Supermouse IV)在Grand Squeak电影院上映一样。 展览的成功给了我一个主意。 我写了一本关于恐龙、猛犸象和其他史前动物的书。 它成了一本畅销书!又过了几个月。

One morning, as I was checking my e-mail, I found this message: GERONIMO, DERR FRIEND, I've read with great pleasure the article about the mammoth you published in The Rodent's Gazette. I found it very interesting. I'm extremely honored that you dedicated the discovery to me! I'm almost ready for my first time-travel experiment. I would love for you to join me. I will contact you soon. Take care! Paws von UOlt P.S. Thank you so very much for not squeaking about the yetis. It means a lot to me. By the way, my underwater lab is fabumouse.

一天早上，当我查看电子邮件时，我发现了这样一条信息:杰罗尼莫，亲爱的朋友，我非常高兴地阅读了你在《啮齿动物公报》上发表的关于猛犸象的文章。 我发现它很有趣。 你把这个发现献给我，我感到非常荣幸!我几乎准备好进行我的第一次时间旅行实验了。 我希望你能加入我。 我会尽快联系你。保重!爪·冯·乌尔特P.S. 非常感谢你没有告发雪人的事。 这对我来说意义重大。顺便说一下，我的水下实验室非常棒。

There was also a picture of Professor von Volt's time-travel machine. I studied it closely. A dedication was engraved on its side. It read: To my dear friend Geronimo Stilton, a true gentlemouse who knows the value of friendship. iohlik. with great respect, Paws von Volt.

还有一张冯·沃特教授的时间旅行机器的照片。 我仔细研究了一下。它的侧面刻着一句献词。 上面写着:致我亲爱的朋友杰罗尼莫·斯蒂尔顿，一位懂得友谊价值的真正温柔的老鼠。 非常尊敬，爪子·冯·沃特。

Ah, friendship is truly a rare and precious thing. I'd say it's even more precious than the fur on top of my head! I wondered when Professor von Volt would finish working on his time-travel machine. I was excited at the idea of traveling with him. Yes, I know I'm not the most courageous of mice. And I do hate traveling. But for a chance to travel through time, I, geronimo stilton, just might make an exception.... And that's a promise!

啊，友谊真是稀有而珍贵的东西。 我得说它比我头上的毛还要珍贵!我想知道冯·沃特教授什么时候才能完成他的时间旅行机器。 一想到要和他一起旅行，我就很兴奋。 是的，我知道我不是最勇敢的老鼠。 我讨厌旅行。但如果有机会穿越时空，我，杰罗尼莫·斯蒂尔顿，可能会破例.... 这是我的承诺!
